Hi
I have LG G3 of AT&T that says D850.
I tried flashing it with a custom rom and after i restarted, it keep going into FASTBOOT mode and i couldnt open the phone.
I tried FlasTool to goto stock rom but it kept saying that the device model mismatched with the rom (i downloaded the ATT D850 dll and TOT).
After that i tried erasing the recovery, aboot, laf through fastboot. Just after i erased it my battery went out and phone goes off.
Now i cannot even turn on my phone. it show no screen at all.
However if i connect the USB, my pc detect something as a removeable device on computer.
Is there any way i can unbrick it?
Take battery off for few secs and put it back. Press power button and volume down at same time. When lg logo appears release and press again. You'll see white page with warnings. press 2x yes and you are now in twrp recovery mode.
Try factory reset. If doesn't help try install any rom from sd card or ext card.

There is nothing appearing by pressing the power button.
After I erased boot, recovery from fastboot, the LG logo stops appearing and phone is behaving like its not even starting up.
Even in flashtool, it doesn't show any model number or imei now.
Earlier if was showing as D8559
power and vol down together. If nothing then i would search how to unbrick

I tried both but flashtool is not recognizing my device, it shows no imei and pid.
Plus my device is d850 but it shows the error that device model is mismatched with the files however I downloaded the d850 files.
Dude you hard bricked it. I fell into the same exact situation. Came to flash stock but faulty win8 drivers caused my flash to fail at 14%...and everything went horribly wrong.
you can see a reply i wrote earlier that can help you:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-...overy-mode-t3162652/post61991431#post61991431
BUT both links in the reply are to fixing a hardbrick for international D855 models and i am not sure if they will work with you.
Honestly your phone is not dead. There is many ways to fix it...if not now then eventually. You can find many threads with the same problem. Honestly i was sick to my stomach when it happened to me...you must be patient and make sure you read everything carefully before doing anything and I'm sorry this happened to you
Good luck!

My friend got a MP6900SP, and he tried to download a rom and flash it.
Now the phone is bricked, can't power on.
When connect to PC, nothing happened.
If I press power + volumn down + reset, PC will found a device.
No bootloader screen (tri-color), screen is totally blank.
RUU can't found the phone.
I did some research, but got confused.
Most post are for Verizon phone, not sure if they work the same for spring.
So, I am just checking to see if there's a way to revive my friend's phone.
Thanks all for the help!!
try to update via SD card
search for updating the bootloader via sd and also updating roms via SD
sounds like you may need to try updating the bootloader via SD first
good luck

Have you pulled the battery and let it sit for a minute then put the battery back in and tried to power on?
Blank screen and cant power on? sounds like something far more than bricked from the ROM he tried...
If you can get the screen I would try the suggested route with the flash from bootloader/SD card technique but if you cant get a screen at all no matter what and swapped out batteries as well (have seen a bad battery cause similar issues and may be a coincidence this is happening during a flash attempt)

To enter bootloader:
Power+Camera, then reset. No volume button.

bootloader mode flash was successfully revived the phone.
Not sure what "power + volumn down + reset" mode is, but PC does show fine a data interface when I press them.
Anyway, thank you all for the help!!
You guys are good!!

i dont know how to put my mp6900sp in bootloader mode i tried the above still doesnt work only the start up screen and then it stays on
I don't know what the OP was saying about the volume button.
But just to be clear: if you are stuck at the bootup screen, having problems connecting and/or need to flash via SD card.....you want to quickly press and hold the top Power button + right side Camera button, then the bottom Reset button. The phone should display the rainbow screen and will say "Serial" on it until you plug the phone into your computer, when it should change to "USB".
For more help see this post and because I recommend an NFSFAN ROM this thread and this thread.
I accidentally formatted the system partition so the tablet will not boot. I can't get back in to TWRP, I didn't have anything to flash in there anyway because CM would fail. What can I do?
Thank you.
You could try the LG mobile support tool

Can you write to it in ADB? How far does it come when it tries to boot? just LG bootloop? And what edition of TWRP did you use to flash?

I realize why it didn't flash. Because I was using an older version of TWRP that wouldn't flash AOSP roms. Is there any way to boot to recovery from the device being off?
The method in the link doesn't seem to work anymore.
How far do you get in the boot? LG screen? When connect to PC do you get connect/disconnect sounds? Please answer the questions as I'm thinking about this. I can't find any key combos so we need to find out if we have a small window where we can talk to ADB.. Any connection sounds? How far do you get?
Are you familiar with ADB and Fastboot?

I don't hear any sounds. It just stays at the LG screen. I made it to the factory reset screen but it didn't do anything. I followed these steps:
Make sure your device is fully charged and turned off.
Simultaneously press and hold the power and volume down buttons.
When the LG logo shows up, release the power button only.
Now press and hold the power and volume up button while keeping your hold on the volume down button.
When the factory reset screen appears, release your hold on all buttons.
Press the power button to continue.
Press the power button again to confirm if you’re sure you wish to continue with the reset.

ADB doesn't work at the LG screen, I just get the error: device not found message.
I can just send it back but I'd prefer to get it working.

Okay, okay, I dunno what you can do maybe ADB Works in here: Turn off the device AND disconnect from PC. When shut Down, you DONT hold power, but hold Volume up + Volume Down, when you hold both, you plug in USB cable. This takes you to download mode. That is perhaps a step in the right direction if you can start ADB from download mode. Then you can boot into recovery. But I don't know. This is maybe the last option for you. No recovery key combo has been discovered yet. If you can do a fastboot boot recovery from download mode, that would be golden. Then you can use the SD Card to get back with the newest TWRP and the CM11 nightly. Please let me know if this Works man. I'm sorry for your loss, otherwise. Factory Reset, as you said, will not work, since there's nothing to "restore" from. You deleted it. :/
Unfortunately, ADB doesn't work in download mode.

Damn that sucks. I was looking around the G2 forums to see about download mode and what LG usually did with it. Apparently they are using something called KDZ files, and they are able to flash stock roms back onto the device with something called FlashTool. Now, if it were my tablet and it was in the state yours is, I would try and read the tutorial. And then I'd follow it step by step but instead of the G2 KDZ, I'd see if I could find a KDZ with a G Pad rom instead. And just.. Yolo that ****.. From download mode.
Here's the thread, if you wanna read it.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476. I dunno man. The LG Tool thing, maybe you should try and see what techrider6262 is saying, he might have an idea as well, otherwise, just go all out crazy and see if you can magically use the FlashTool on your G Pad instead of the G2, since they are from "same line up." I know that's not the same as same model and so on.. But still.. Download mode.. Is download mode. Ofc. the tool itself or the settings in the tool might not work.. But.. You know. Why not.. Can't hurt.. Download mode will prolly still be available afterwards.. "For science."
got the same problem. i couldnt i wiped all data on the tablet and couldnt select the rom from the ext.sd. now its stuck at the lg logo.

This guys.. Is for download mode fix. I am pretty sure this works. Since you have access to Dload mode. Good luck.
I use the download mode to install the original official rom.
1. Download the LG MOBILE SUPPORT TOOL by this link:http://www.lg.com/us/support-mobile/lg-V500-White
2. install the software in computer, Plug in USB cable with computer, Open the software LG MOBILE SUPPORT TOOL.
3. Turn off Pad and unplug.
4. press hold both volume up and volume down, Then plug in usb cable, And then pad is in downlaod mode
5. USB driver will be insatlled automatically
6. In LG MOBILE SUPPORT TOOL, click option---.country and language-OK, then click option--upgrade recovery
7. It will installe original official rom automatically.
8. After about 1.5 hours, The pad will be installed the last official room.
^ This is a quote and now I shut down the thread, sorry, don't know who said it, just got stoked when I saw it.
thanks, the tool is downloading the rom. hope its works.
// it worked thanks a lot, will try to flash cm 11 tomorrow again.

That is GREAT!
Now remember mate, clear DATA in TWPR, not system.. Never system. Clear only data/factory reset, then just flash CM 11. Nothing else is needed. Remember to install superSU from market after you get booted, otherwise root will not work. Update Binary in SuperSU.
Okay thanks for your help. Its so stupid that there is no key combination for recovery.
I will use your advice and try it later.

There is...
With device powered off do this...
Hold volume key down and press and hold power button.
When LG Logo appears let go of just the power key while still holding the volume key down and then press power key again and volume up while still holding down the volume key.
You get to the factory reset screen and just keep pressing power until you get into recovery.

and its suddenly working
it didnt work before. i dont know why, is it normal?
anyway....its working now
very thank you for your advise.....
You need to complete shutdown your phone, press power key until the screen turn to complete black (and continue pressing for 5 or 10 seconds more), then, press VOLUME DOWN KEY + POWER KEY and you see a screen to hard reset your phone, press Power key again and your phone will be factory reset and restart normally. Try this without connecting to your PC. Obviously all your personal data will be delete.

Hi I'm sorry if you've already said you can't get into recovery mode or anything but when i bricked my g4 i used the lg flash tool to flash h815 10c stock and then instead of flashing the latest twrp (the blue themed one) i flashed the one before it which is 2.8.6.1 and it worked perfectly so if you manage to get into recovery or fastboot then try and flash that version of twrp instead , good luck buddy...

You might be able to save it by pressing and holding vol - and power until the bootscreen and release and click them three times. It might bring up an option to factory reset. Follow the process to do so, and see if it works.
